I am thinking this is some kind of Anole from a foreign land, or someone’s pet lizard escaped. I took this photo on my window ledge. I have never seen them before in Houston until the last year or so.
Anybody know what it is?
Updated: I found the answer it is a Brown Anole common to Florida with isolated populations in Texas.
This photo was taken at my parent’s home awhile back. This is a bottle brush, and I love their vibrant red colors.
One of the best smelling and most beautiful plants is a plumeria. I took this photo at my parent’s house several years ago. Flowers die, but photos are forever.
I am not sure what kind of frogs these little guys are, but I was really impressed at how they camouflage. They may be some type of wood frog. If you know, please share their name in a comment. Look closely at the photo and you will see two of them.
I took this photo at the Houston Arboretum.
The rule of thumb for avoiding a poisonous coral snake is RED touch YELLOW kill a fellow, RED touch BLACK friend of jack. This referring to the bands on the snake. As you see in this photo it is red touch yellow. A big four to five foot long coral snake. Personally, I find them relatively harmless and reclusive. If you get bitten by a coral snake, you were holding or molesting it.
I took this photo at the Houston Arboretum. He was on the run when he sensed my presence.
This photo was taken by me at the Houston Arboretum. Many people confuse these for water moccasins or cottonmouths. This snake is harmless.

Magical Woman
Her hair is dark
Her eyes brown
She’s fabulous
To be around
Her skin is smooth
And her lips full
The brain she has
Is her best tool
When your’re down
She’ll lift you up
Inside you will bubble
Like Seven-Up
When she’s close
She feels so warm
Inside of me
I feel transformed
She’s a magical woman
That I know
For in my veins
Her love flows

The Octopus
Eight arms to catch prey
Silently hiding in reefs
Inks! He got away.
